MPRC Seminar: Risk Tolerance and Parental Investment in Children
Description:
Jeffrey Borowitz, Student Scholar, Department of Economics, University of Maryland
About the Talk: Parental investment in children's human capital forms a critical foundation for children's economic futures, but parents face considerable uncertainty about exactly how their investments determine their children's futures. Using insights from the child development literature, I model parental investment over childhood when uncertainty matters.
